How to Get Your Skin Glowing
Makeup looks best when it’s applied to great skin. Here are 5 top tips for getting your skin into shape...
1. Improve the Surface Layer of Your Skin
- Older skin tends to be very dry. Remove dead skin cells so renewed, younger looking skin can show through
- Use a gentle exfoliator to scrub your face. This will boost blood circulation and bring newer, moist skin cells to the surface
- Your skin will absorb our Smooth The Day Face Cream better when it's freshly exfoliated.
2. Hydrate From Within
- What we eat and drink can affect how good our skin looks, so eat foods containing Vitamin C
- Make sure that you drink lots of fresh water
- Taking fish oil supplements can also have a beneficial effect and all of these things will help to prevent (or slow) wrinkling.Â
3. Use a Gentle Cleanser (No Soap!)
- Soap strips the skin of its natural oils and makes it feel uncomfortably tight and dry.
- Use cleansers which will remove dirt from the surface of the skin but will not disturb your skin’s delicate pH balance.
- I wash my face every morning with our Perfectly Clean Cleansing Lotion. You'll love the refreshed and hydrated feeling you get from using just warm water and a creamy cleanser. Bye bye dryness!
4. Use a Winning Serum/Moisturiser Combo
- After you have exfoliated, use a good serum and allow to sink into the skin.
- Apply your moisturiser on top of that for a double hit of nourishment.
- After ten minutes or so, you can go in with an SPF so that you know that your skin is always protected from UVA sun damage.
- If you suffer from dry skin, using this winning combo will keep your skin quenched, bright and glowing!
5. Remove All Traces of Makeup Before Bed
- Use an eye makeup remover on your eyes where the skin is more delicate and prone to stretching.
- Then use a good emollient night cream to ‘feed’ the skin while you are sleeping.
- Sleep is of course fantastically rejuvenating to the skin and ensures that you don’t have bags or dark circles under your eye during the daytime.
- Give your under-eyes a helping hand with a restorative eye cream.
